Sent to Demoder on Twitter, was now looking into the issue.
So... Today, I learned: Enabling caching for Smarty templates which use the {include} directive means you're gonna have a bad time. The strangest thing is it didn't have this bug on the test site, and it didn't have this bug the first few minutes after pushing to live, which was when I tested it on live. I'll definitely have to figure out what's up with that.
It should be fixed now though, and nano listings should hopefully be a bit faster than they were before.

I will eventually. The problem with searching for QL is that it will only match 'member templates' of that QL. For example, searching for Combined Commando's between ql 200 and 230 will yield no results, as the templates of those items are only ql 1 and 300. But the item DOES exist at those QLs, because of interpolation between those two templates.
I'll see if I can make it yield "correct" results, and if not, will implement it anyway, but with aforementioned bugs.

Search: Fixed some minor bugs, and filtered the Stats selector. Example: If you chose to add a filter for Attack Skill, only stats which are used as attack skills will be shown in the dropdown.

Thanks for the heads-up. It should be fixed now.

Can you make the filters for breed, gender, profession and faction so, that they also include "All"? Or at least make a checkbox for that? With such a change it would be perfect

Yes, I'd like be able to search by seeing all the items my breed/profession/side can use.
The search interface would need to be re-done somewhat though.
If I want to find all neck items that can be used by neutral characters, I can't do that.
If this is the same request, then I support it.

Request #2
The titles in related links are often too long to be legible in the box on certain resolutions. Could you also add the title of the article in the title attribute so I can see it on hover?
Or remove that 40 pixel left indent on the list. It doesn't need to be there when there are no bullets.
It is... because basically you want to have items that ALL can wear and that ONLY NEUTRALS can wear... so the logic would be to have the NEUTRAL filter include ALL by default and maybe have a checkbox to make those filterboxes exclusive.
Beside of that i like the design and that it's the current database as well
Yeah I have to admit I still revert to auno when doing item type searches to see what (e.g.) a female omni opifex engineer can wear in neck slot that buffs psy. Being able to do that just as neatly with AOItems would be ideal.

The Union
The most recent AOItems downtime (May 31st, as reported by Burrstin) was caused by the automated upgrade of installed packages. This routine is usually trouble-free, and it wouldn't have been a problem at that time either, had it not been for a bug with the underlying package system. It was easily corrected once I was made aware the site was down and had time to fix it (read: once i was not sleeping)
When PHP was upgraded, pecl-memcached was not. This made pecl-memcached complain about missing symbols and whatnot, and this caused the 'internal server error' page you all saw.
Although Poudriere (package build server) properly rebuilt pecl-memcached together with PHP, pkg (package management thingy, kinda like apt) didn't upgrade pecl-memcached. After having a talk with the poudriere and pkg maintainers on IRC, I was informed the PHP and PECL ports (ports are what packages are built from) don't properly define dependencies, so pkg didn't know to upgrade pecl-memcached when php got a minor update. (related issue report)
So... I guess I should look into fixing that and submitting a patch. But for now, the automated upgrade is disabled, so that I am present to fix any surfacing errors when an upgrade is manually run.

AOItems updated with patch 18.7.4, and now has a new landing page which summarizes recent changes!

Can we get the "search from address bar" feature please? It is the best feature.
Thank you so much for your amazing work with AOItems.com. The service is truly invaluable
I frequently use the nano-listing-per-profession feature, and I have a small request regarding those lists. Would it be feasible to add a rightmost column, displaying which patch number is currently affecting the nano? Basically your PatchWidget, in the detailed item view, but only showing the most recent "modified by".

AOItems did this before the new layout... I must have forgotten to include the meta tag for it in the new smarty template. Thanks!
I don't think I'll have that shown by default as it's already at "information overflow" levels, but I'll consider implementing something which allows the user to request extra info to be shown for them.
